1. Uma lâmpada incandescente de 60 W é usada para iluminar um corredor de uma loja. Nos dias em que a loja está aberta, essa lâmpada permanece acesa por 10 horas. Sabendo que a loja abre 6 dias na semana, e que a taxa paga pela energia elétrica é de R$0,75 por kWh, calcule o gasto com energia elétrica, por semana, dessa lâmpada.

Answer:

The cost of electric energy, per week, is $3.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Power = 60 W

Time = 10 hours

Cost of electric energy = $ 0.75

We need to calculate the energy

Using formula of energy


E=Pt

Where, P = power

t = times

Put the value into the formula


E=60*10


E=600\ Wh


E=0.6\ kw h

We need to calculate the energy consume in a week

Using formula of energy


E'=0.6*7


E'=4.2\ kwh

We need to calculate the cost of electric energy, per week,

Using energy for cost


Cost\ of\ 1\ kWh=\$0.75


Cost\ of\ 4,2\ kwh=4.2*0.75


Cost\ of\ electric\ energy=$ 3.15

Hence, The cost of electric energy, per week, is $3.15
